95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
I've got a 95 Camaro with a 3.4 in it...it's an automatic, a shame, but it is
 , anyway, my buddy has a 97 Mustang with a 3.8-standard...both basically all stock, except for the flowmaster I've got on mine...anyway, in a heads up race, does the .4 more liters really have that much pull? I haven't raced him yet, but if I do, I'd like to know what to expect

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
um dont know who would win but uh....pretty much all v-6 stangs suck dook bootie when it comes to any kinda of power output. The v-8's are at least ok.
maybe that helps??

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
Could go either way since power wise you guys are right around each other.

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
To try and make the race go more in your favor, try to lighten the car up a bit by taking out the rear seats and your tire/jack.. remember, any weight you take off of your car is helpful!

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
you would have to take out the back rest part of the back seats for it to do something if anything. Id just race him and see what happens if you really want to know.

No kidding or anything. Not the newer or the 99-04 ones. But the older 94-98 GTs. Kept up with them and beaten a few. It's only when we get to high speeds do they win. Anything over 110 and my engine stops.

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
I'm with everyone else here on that the 3.4 couldnt beat a GT man. Seeing as in how I've raced 2 GT's in my 3.4 at the track and got my ass handed to me both times.
As for a 3.4 vs a 3.8 mustang.... very close race. The 3.8 in the mustangs makes about 150 hp, while the 3.4 makes around 160. I know I've raced one of the newer mustangs with the 3.8 hung with him off the line, but he started pulling ahead of me around 50 mph. That was with just a cheesy ebay intake on, I'm sure I could beat one now with the new intake and exhaust I've got. So yeah, you might have a chance of beating him if he's all stock. Otheriwise I see it as whoever's the better driver wins.

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
I am sorry but unless you raced a severly hurting 4.6 or 5.0 there is no way, just look at it from a numbers perspective. I fully support your chances against a 3.8 stang like was mentioned but lets be real for a minute. I just read what blind said as well as have heard countless mustang vs me storys from Kaotik. The is no way a healthy GT Mustang couldn't walk you Ftheman.

Re: 95 Camaro vs. 97 Mustang
I know it's hard to believe. Hell I was even shocked when it happened. But I have done it.
My car is werid like that. It gets this werid boost like feeling in the higher rpms after the second gear.
